Chapter 28: "Just a nightmare…"

Matt explained that because of her I was what was known as a 'Dragon Knight'. Because she was the leader of these Dragon Knights (she was called the Azure Knight) that made me her heir. I laid curled up in my room thinking about everything I had learned.

"I'm a Dragon Knight and you are too!" I remember her saying happily.

I was still confused. "... What in Makai are you talking about?"

"Well, There was a dragon who once fell in love with a human and thus a half dragon was created. We're the descendents of that half dragon. We're from the Azure clan."

Matt told me that the half dragon had four sons. And each son split into four clans. Azure, Garnet, Bisque, and Viridian. Ours was the Azure. The four clans went to war and the Garnet clan was wiped out... If I'm remembering this correctly. At the moment Matt was the Azure Knight, the leader of the Azure clan.

I sighed and fell into an uneasy sleep.

I was standing… it actually felt more like I was floating… in the middle of what looked like the remains of a battlefield. There were bodies of dragons, demons, humans, everything. I walked… or floated… among the battlefield wondering what had happened. What had caused a battle this big?

I looked among the bodies, praying this wasn't like the many other nightmares I've had. I saw faces of those I cared for. They had died for some cause… I felt cold and empty as I continued to wander around. I saw one person standing among the bodies and ruins. I quickly went to see who survived this battle.

What I saw scared me. I was standing there, soaked in blood. I was staring at my claws, smirking more evilly then I ever had. My fangs were longer and more evil-looking and my black and red bat-like wings were half-way flared and the wingspan bigger.

It was so much like the dreams I have had but yet so different… It… felt more real then any of my dreams would…

I woke up, scrambling to my feet. I felt closed in and opened the window as quickly as I could. I leaned halfway out of it then after a moment realized something.

……I was in my normal demon form again. I laughed happily then realized I needed clothes. I teleported inside and got dressed in one of my spare outfits. I felt awkward and unbalanced. "No tail…" I muttered. "Tail means balance and there no tail…"It was strange being in my normal form but at the same time it made me forget my dream. "It was just a nightmare…" I mumbled before going outside to adjust to my old body.
